Clutch Repairs

The clutch is a mechanical component located between the engine and a manual transmission that allows the engine to be temporarily disconnected from the transmission. This allows the gears to shift, allowing the vehicle to remain motionless while still in gear. The clutch is engaged and disengaged through a pedal, which is usually located on the floor to the left of the brake pedal.

Common Clutch Problems:

High or Low Clutch Petal

Inability to Fully Disengage

Grinding When Shifting

Clutch Does Not Fully Re-Engage (Slipping)

Chattering or Other Noises When Shifting

Clutch Pedal Becomes Hard to Push Down

Diagnosing Problems

What Can I Expect from AATCO?

The first step will be to bring it into the shop so we can look at it to see if there really is a problem. If it's simple, like a minor adjustment, we may be able to take care of it immediately. If it's more serious, we will explain the issue, how long it will take, and what it will cost to fix it.

What Can AATCO Do?

We take care of clutches on nearly any vehicle. We can do everything from minor adjustments to complete replacements.

What Kind of Maintenance Can I Do to Keep My Clutch in Good Shape?

There really isn't a lot of maintenance for a clutch. Good driving practices—such as leaving your foot off the pedal when not actually changing gears—and making sure it is completely disengaged when at a full stop or coasting will add to the life of the clutch. Pay attention to the way the clutch feels and if the feel changes—or if there are any noises when using the clutch.

By design, the clutch pads will wear down over time, causing the pedal to get higher. If the clutch is brought in when symptoms are first noticed, it may be possible to fix the issue with a simple adjustment.
